BackgroundE-Connectivity -- Social Connection in an Online Classroom

Studies have been completed that identified the

need for…

Achieving a social connection (e-connectivity) with

their students (Slagter van Tryon & Bishop, 2006)

Increasing interactivity that “will help the students'

with their understanding” (Swanson, Hutkin, Babb,

& Howell, 2010, p. 121).

BackgroundWarm, Friendly, Honest, and Caring

Participants 100% agreed that faculty should be

warm, available to answer questions; hold students

to a high standard, remain flexible to adult learners;

honest in all of their interactions, and demonstrate

a caring nature in the online classroom” (Swanson,

Hutkin, Babb, & Howell, 2010, p. 119).

Anecdoctal Evidence

Here’s the evidence

Anecdotal Evidence

Students say…I gain from this type of feedback as I am a visual learner.Hearing your voice helps me to understand the concept that you are explaining.

Instructor Specialists say…

Providing this type of feedback is as though you are sitting with the student and guiding him or her through the paper. Great job!
